MAY – After escaping with a one-point victory at Cross Plains on Jan. 15, the No. 8 May Lady Tigers maintained their share of first place with No. 9 Eula in the District 13-A standings by coasting past the Lady Buffs in Tuesday’s rematch, 50-35.
May head coach Derek Stevens cited “intensity and preparation” as the keys to the convincing victory.
“I take pride in preparation and I thought I had them prepped pretty well the first time, but the way the schedule worked out Cross Plains was able to prep for us for about a week and a half,” Stevens said. “I felt like I was good for prep, but obviously it wasn’t enough the first time. We just didn’t shoot well over there, they had a good game plan and threw a lot of stuff at us. But I feel like we were way more prepared this time and played better ball.”
Prioritize Colorado’s competitiveness agenda; reimagine tomorrow’s workforce; and invest in “future-forward” infrastructure.
The project collected the skill, insights and hard data from 30 business leaders affiliated with the Colorado Business Roundtable and the economists and supporters of the Common Sense Institute think tank in Denver.
The work is expected to continue for a couple of years involving more business leaders as the recovery progresses, said Debbie Brown, the president of Colorado Business Roundtable.
The report is not all bad news, but it’s not very good, either. Colorado had one of the best economies in the country for labor and business climate and that’s something good to build on, but since those measures were taken the state has lost 125,000 jobs and slipped a little from its high rankings.
